The M1280D was the first of the heavy lift tower cranes to be developed and introd [M1280D at Burrinjuck Dam and lifting 220 tonne reactor] uced into our fleet.
The crane was developed when a client approached us with a problem they had where a large crane was required to lift heavy component to construct a hydro electric power station at the bottom of a dam wall. The main issue was there was no room to establish a large crane either on the dam wall or below.
From here we developed the M1280D which was capable of lifting all the components they required and required very little area to establish.
The M1280D has since then been involved in a range of projects from the up grade of Melbournes MCG to projects in oli refineries, steel works and p0wer station upgrades.
The M1280D is again fitted with a 50 tonne winch, 80 meter boom and has a height under hook exceeding 170 meters before lateral ties are require.
